THE REAL AMERICAN IDOL

People are some judgemental muthafucas...what's the matter fox....scared that america will choose a "fat girl" as an idol?

To me Frenchelle Davis represents a much needed overhaul in the music industry! She was..no IS like a breath of fresh air in a stagnate, smoke filled room!! She represents the spirit, talent, and persona that the entertainment industry so desperately craves!

This whole topic hits very close to home for me. As most of my real friends know (internet friends, real friends, members...those that I allow into my inner circle) that I too am an aspiring artist destined to fullfill my god given talent. As a matter of fact, I am in the studio as I type this from my lap top taking a break from putting the finishing touches on my demo...how ironic is that?

I found out about the "controversy" from my home boy hitting me up on my 2-way. He is a friend of hers and they both attend Howard University together. He just happened to be in town for the weekend to spend time with his girl on Valentine's.
I do not know Frenchelle personally but I feel as if I do as I claim all bbw's as my sisters. One of the main reasons I started this site was to represent for my bbw queens of all proportions and show that we too can be sexy and alluring as hell..probably even more so, without it having to be degrading, vulgar and distasteful... and that's exactly what she would have done on that show....REPRESENTED

I looked forward to watching her cream rise all the way to the top and listening to her blow everyone out the water and off the radar on American Idol 2. I hate reality shows, but I was willing to make an exception this time just so I could witness a BBW make it in this judgemental, hypocritical music business where you got to be a size 2, have fake breasts, have a flat stomach and a belly ring to be taken seriously, so what If you have a beautiful voice that could make you want to cry and bow down to worship such talent....I KNOW SHE WOULD HAVE MADE IT...and so did FOX.

So after the shock wore off, and I picked my jaw up off the floor, made my round of calls and hit up everyone on my buddy list on yahoo to see what the hell had happened, I got back on the mic in the recording booth and it seemed like I sung harder than ever. I totally laced the track in one take. Something that I hardly do being that I am such a perfectionist, I always have to do it just "one more time."

Anyway, as I headed back to my laptop to complete this story that I just felt utterly compelled to write I began to think..."That could be me...hell That IS me....That is MY story!" No I'm not on a TV show, but I am still trying to be an "American Idol" the first SSBBW who can sing no BLOW. And just like her, I am comfortable in my own skin, I am not ashamed to get in front of millions of people and "work it" and make no apologies about it! I am not afraid of the stares and glances, as if I am out of order for (1)holding my head up high (2)having more than the usual amount of self-esteem and (3)strutting my stuff with the utmost of confidence...not to mention the "who does she think she is..don't she know she's fat"...(ummm yes I do, and don't YOU know that YOU are stupid, you only WISH you had it going on like me!")...and last but not least, I too am on a website....hell I run my own "adult" website, I probably would not only have gotten disqualified from the competition, but FOX probably would try to through me out of the country, burn me at the stake or some shit for OWNING my OWN shit and not just posing here and there.

I am PROUD of my many accomplishments, on and off the internet. I have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of or hide. Either does Frenchelle. I do what I do with the utmost of style, grace and integrity and I have never once lost any sleep over how the public will receive me or what people will think of me or my website when I do finally get my singing career on track.
In fact, I would be thrilled for my website to suddenly "leak out" or for some jealous envious person/s to "bust me out" and "reveal" images of me topless in hopes of damaging my career, name and image.
Besides I don't have ANY photos, video clips or any other content that I am not completely pleased with, matter of fact I plan on using my site as a promoting tool...all in time...

........Frenchie is just the antidote for this bland anerexic talent pool we have now! Frenchie would have done the music industry proud and most importantly, for any bbw, or anyone for that mater, who has self esteem issues dealing with their weight or looking different. She would have been the ideal role model!
The real deal is that some close-minded producers couldn't handle a BIG, BEAUTIFUL, BLACK woman winning a competiton of this magnitude....Realize this damnit...Frenchie will blow up and become a star regardless now, American Idol or no American Idol. Talent speaks for itself and her talent is S-C-R-E-A-M-I-N-G!

Just my 2cents!
